SANDRA BACKLUND is a fashion designer graduated from Beckmans college of design in Stockholm. From 2004, year of her graduation, founded her own label. Winner of the french prize at the "1997 Festival International de la Mode et de la Photographie de Hyeres" known as the European festival dedicated to the alternative fashion and photography. Backlund's clothes looks more like sculptures than fashion items. Forms are the characteristic feature of her work. Until recently oversized knitted clothes belonged to the cocooning trend almost exclusively. Labels like the one of Sandra Backlund's dare to break the fashion frontier reminds at the same time that we need to return back to the natural materials.
